This week we have a wonderful promise found in Psalm 34:15.
No matter what is going on in the world around us, his children are always under the watchful eye of God, and he is listening for our cry.
As a mom, I can relate to this in a small way, at least in the hearing part. As I was thinking about this verse, I couldn't help but think of an incident that happened many years ago. My children and I were attending a sports day at a local school, where one of my foster children was participating. While I was watching her, my son went to play on the swings. A short time later, I heard a cry from across the schoolyard. Amid the noise of over 100 children laughing, playing and cheering, I instantly recognized the cry of my child. What a comfort to know that just as I respond to my child, my Father is listening for my cry. Not only that, but he is also watching over me at all times, and nothing that comes into my life has caught him unaware.
(in case you're curious, I had to take my son across the street to the hospital to have his chin stitched up!)
Song for this week: The Eyes of the Lord
The message of this Psalm is very similar to Psalm 33:18 from 2 weeks ago, so I had to do some digging to find a different song for this week. This one is adapted from the words found in Psalm 34 verses 15, 17-19, and 22.
Join me again next week as I look at another promise from Psalms.
